We were looking for something different near the bourbon tour in Kentucky. Love the farm location with the friendly dogs on the property and beautiful horses. The space was finished perfectly very very comfortable and the hosts were great. Stay here you’ll be very happy!

Thank you so much for choosing us as your destination. We hope to see you again!
We loved the Bunkhouse. Like a real bunkhouse but with all the luxuries of home. A must stay if you are sick of run of the mill hotels. Wake to the sounds of nature and horse ranch life. So much better than city sounds. And minutes from town. We enjoyed it immensely!

Trip didnt go as planned
We did not get to stay on the property, as they had an issue with being double booked. But Michelle did find my husband and I another location to stay. It was not what we were expecting. We did get a free trail ride so that was a great experience.

We're thrilled to welcome you to our ranch! As ranchers originally from Texas, we've spent our lives living and working on the land, raising cattle and horses, and enjoying the beauty of the great outdoors. There's something special about sharing this way of life with others, and that's why we love hosting guests on our ranch. We take pride in our Western hospitality and enjoy sharing our knowledge and passion for ranching with those who are interested. But it's not all about work and no play - we also love to have fun and make sure our guests have an unforgettable experience!

The rolling hills, lush green pastures, and sparkling streams create a sense of peace and tranquility that's hard to find in today's fast-paced world. We love watching the sunset over the mountains, listening to the birds sing in the morning, and enjoying a campfire under the starry night sky. But it's not just the natural beauty of the property that we adore - it's also the sense of community and connection that comes with ranch life. From working cattle to horseback rides, there's always something happening on the ranch, and we love sharing that experience with our guests. For us, this property is more than just a place to stay - it's a way of life, and we feel incredibly lucky to call it home.
